3. How can data providers make it easier to assess the data quality and the appropriate uses for a data set?
- Use watermarks as a "stamp of approval"
- "Brand" products (through time)
- Develop registry of trusted entities. (assessing quality of watermarkers)
- Use appropriate metadata standards that include quality data
- Embed links in metadata to community-supported quality information (see questions [8] and [9])
- Include ability to find citations to data in publications to illustrate uses
- Create tools to compare basic attributes of comparable datasets (see question [11]). I.E. C/NET product comparisons
- Keep [all] documentation with data. Evolve data models to include all relevant metadata
- Invest in other quality and impact metrics. For example, scholarly citation metrics
- Develop tools (such as the DIAL authoring tools) that allow users to explore appropriate uses
- Richer quality measurements in metadata
- Work with/to standards
- COMMUNITY vetting for quality marking: make data available to the broader community earlier (See #3)
